Larvikite

Q: What is Larvikite made of?

Larvikite has the chemical formula Alkali feldspar (anorthoclase) + pyroxene + amphibole, crystallises in the igneous (phaneritic) system and measures 6 – 6.5 (Mohs) on the Mohs scale. Larvikite is a distinctive igneous rock from the Larvik batholith in Norway. Its blue-silver schiller, known as labradorescence, arises from microscopic exsolution lamellae in the anorthoclase feldspar crystals. It is widely used as a dimension stone and is the national rock of Norway.
